Just posting to keep the thread up at the top. Would love to hear more opinions...
What's the best non-DAC streamer?
I've already got a great DAC (an Yggy) but have never auditioned any streamers. The rest of my system is all Schiit Audio with the 400W monoblocks and Tekton speakers. Have just been using an iPad as a streaming source for Tidal and Spotify.
What streamer under $3k would give me the most bang for the buck?

If cost is no object for anyone reading (sorry, I know the op asked for sub $3k), the taiko sgm extreme is supposed to be one of the best... https://6moons.com/audioreview_articles/taiko/ @mikelavigne has one in his absolutely beautiful system: https://systems.audiogon.com/systems/615 |
I should say that like an earlier poster, I do have a magna mano ultra streamer. It’s raspberry pi based with a really nice linear power supply and high precision fento clocks. It sounds great, but unfortunately I haven’t had the opportunity to try other streamers. It feeds an audio mirror tubadour iii-se, Don Sachs 6sn7 pre, first watt f4 mono blocks, Coincident PRE chain. |
